Specialties
At the Shelbourne Knee Center, our pioneering efforts to focus only on the specialty of knee pain and injuries have given us unmatched insight into the options available to patients. Our team has tracked the outcomes of thousands of patients from non-surgical treatments to ACL reconstructions. And we know from this experience when therapeutic options are more successful than surgery and how to minimize recovery time when surgery is necessary.
History
Established in 2004.
Dr. Shelbourne began his orthopedic practice in 1982. He saw there was no specialization for knees even though knee problems affect people in so many different ways. So he decided to pursue knee problems as a specialty, uncovering along the way how surgery and physical therapy work together for better outcomes, and, more importantly, how physical therapy works as a viable alternative to surgery in more cases than most physicians realize.
He established the Shelbourne Knee Center in 2004, which includes clinic, surgery, physical therapy and a research department. Given the overwhelmingly positive response patients have had to his treatment philosophy, Indiana’s only dedicated knee center has grown with the additions of Dr. Scott Urch and Dr. Rodney Benner.
